Cause:
These SCSI controllers require the use of an unique interrupt caused by the design of the driver. They cannot share interrupts with other PCI cards.

Usually there is a table displayed during boot, where your can check the assignment of interrupts to PCI devices. Here you may have a look, if your configurations succeeded.
